Cassy's Painting Auctioned to Benefit Coaches vs. Cancer

Cassy’s artwork is being featured in the American Cancer Society’s Coaches vs. Cancer Golf Invitational Circle of Honor Dinner, held on Sunday, June 13, 2021. Her original painting, Whistling Straits – Hole #17, features the majestic sand bunkers of the championship course, using her signature relief-painting technique which incorporates sand from the course into the paint. This 24 X 30” masterpiece is being auctioned in memory of Cassy’s late father, Timothy Tully. 

Also on display at the event is Cassy’s original painting created for the 2020 Ryder Cup, which will take place at Whistling Straits on September 24 – 26, 2021. This painting features the vibrant gallery and first tee, where the drama of match play commences. 

Coaches vs. Cancer Golf Invitational enlists the support of the college basketball community in the ACS’s fight to end cancer. During the last 21 years, this event has raised more than $5.5 million. This year the ACS is pleased to honor Reggie Minton, who recently retired from his role as NABC deputy executive director. Minton was instrumental in forming Coaches vs. Cancer in 1983.

Cassy Tully Rallies to Reduce Heart Disease and Stroke Through the AHA's Life Is Why We Give™ Campaign

Cassy is joining in the fight against heart disease and stroke alongside the American Heart Association, the world’s leading voluntary health organization devoted to building a world of longer, healthier lives. Throughout the Spring months, Cassy will be participating in Life Is Why We Give™, the American Heart Association’s fundraising campaign.

“I am inspired to be joining the American Heart Association in their fight to make Milwaukee a healthier community. Their lifesaving mission impacts everyone,” Cassy said.

To support this worthwhile mission, now through May 31, 2019, Cassy will offer prints of Homeward, the painting she created live at this year’s Heart & Stroke Ball. A percentage of Homeward’s print sales will be donated to the American Heart Association. Visit Cassy’s online shop to purchase your Homeward print. Each signed, commemorative 12 X 16” print is $50. Signed prints will be available for purchase in Cassy’s studio during the Historic Third Ward’s Gallery Night and Day, April 26 & 27.

“The American Heart Association is committed to fighting heart disease and stroke and improving the quality of life for all Americans,” said American Heart Association Board Chairman James Postl. “Our work would not be possible without the generous support of committed companies like these who provide donation opportunities to their customers. These corporate citizens provide a force multiplying impact to our work and help us get ever closer to a world without needless suffering or death.”

As the leading source of non-government funded cardiovascular science, the Association has invested more than $3.7 billion in scientific research and discovery since 1949. The organization trains approximately 2 million high school graduates in CPR every year and has reduced cardiovascular disease mortality by 70 percent since 1968. 

In addition to contributing to saving lives through Cassy’s print sales, donations may be made directly to the Association at www.lifeiswhy.org/donate. To learn more about the Life Is Why We Give™ campaign and to find other participating companies, visit heart.org/lifeiswhywegive
